#Insecticide companies are now permitted to sell products meant to control household pests such as #cockroaches, #mosquitoes, #houseflies and #bed #bugs without a printed leaflet, following a recent amendment.
Under the revised rules, manufacturers can dispense with physical leaflets as long as a QR code is provided on the product packaging that gives consumers access to all mandatory information, including precautions and possible risks. #india

📰 "Fungus could be the insecticide of the future"

🗒 "Exterminators keep getting calls for a reason. Wood-devouring insects, such as beetles, termites, and carpenter ants, are constantly chewing through walls or infecting trees and breaking them down. The fight against these insects usually involved noxious insecticides; but now, at least some of them can be eliminated using a certain species of fungus."

Fungus could be the insecticide of the future

Plant chemicals made more potent by insect pests are detoxified by the fungus.

Public health groups are suing the Environmental Protection Agency ( #EPA ) over its approval of a #PFAS “forever chemical”
#insecticide
that industry research found likely
reduces testicle size,
lowers sperm count and
harms the liver in rats.

The pesticide, #isocycloseram,
is used on food crops
and could especially threaten children and developing fetuses,
but the EPA did not factor those risks into its safety assessment,
said Nathan Donley,
environmental health science director with the
"Center for Biological Diversity",
a plaintiff in the suit.

The lawsuit marks the latest
flare-up in an ongoing controversy
over the use of forever chemicals
in pesticides,
which public health advocates discovered under the Biden administration,
and has accelerated under Trump.

The pesticide program has also caused friction between
the Robert F Kennedy Jr.-aligned Make America Healthy Again (Maha) movement, which broadly opposes pesticide use,
and Maga elements atop the Trump administration aligned with pesticide and chemical industries.

Early DDT experiments in Vineyards.
Here, a report on 1943 trials in New Jersey. #DDT was first synthesized in 1874. Its effectiveness as an #insecticide, however, was only discovered in 1939. After 1945, the usage of DDT became widespread in the U.S. – It was banned in 1973

À la suite de la première opération de #démoustication dans la nuit du 10 au 11 septembre, et conformément à son protocole relatif à la présence d’un cas autochtone [ de #chikungunya ], l’Agence Régionale de Santé organise une deuxième opération sur le même secteur, dans la nuit du mercredi 17 au jeudi 18 septembre, entre 2h et 5h du matin.

Une deuxième opération de démoustication menée par l'ARS dans le même secteur du 11e !

La présence du moustique tigre a été signalée dans un quartier du 11e. Parce que ce dernier est vecteur de maladies telles que la dengue ou le chikungunya, il est primordial de procéder à une seconde opération de démoustication.
